Slate Treasurer Maxwell, of New Yori.recently went to Washington to anion with Secretary Manning as to til! the Administration wanted to do inXew York this year.

You to back to New York. We don't want repetition of the Folger business." Cholera sta.istic3 for this year.and for latjear in Europe show what great iiridesthephzueha3 been taking since tie end of the cold season. The nam- ber of deaths in Italy and France last jetr was about 20.000. The number of tflw officially reported thus far this Jear from Spain alone was 72,347 up to ktweefc. It is well known that these fibres do not tell the whole story. moreover, there arc to ha- added the deaths this year in Southern France.

The Savannah News goes for Fora ker in his attack on the Democrats of the South, wherein he charges that the ballot is not free tor the colored vote. It says that the .part of- the speech which refers to Chatham county will be read with surprise and a'mazement by those-, who know anything about Chatham county politics. Instead of 12,000, there are only 6,000 qualified voters 4,000 whites and 2,000 colored and the negroes vote first and crowd the whites from the polls. It is true there are four boxes at different points at that place, which is the Courthouse. The facilities for votiug are ample. There are no polling places outside the city because there is no demand for them and no satisfactory location for them. At one time there were two or three such places, but the Republicans abolished them during tho time they had the management of affairs. They never have ueen restored because nobody asked lo have them restored. LOCAL NEWS. IIDEX TO NEW AQVERTISESIEM Tl.

' Two white men who had engaged in n. little animated discussion about some matter unknown to us were be fore the .Mayor this morning. One was fined $20 and costs and tho other was discharged. Yesterday's Excursion: Our friends of the Cornet Concert Club have been unfortunate of late. The two excursions they have given recently have fallen 'on decidedly unpleasant days and yesterday the cool wind de tained many from excurting with them on the Passport who would otherwise have gQnt. There is warm weather in store yet, however, and they shonld try it on once more. Cure for Sleeplessness. A simple cure of sleeplessness has been advised by a Parisian physican for an American .traveling through Europe who suffered from wakeful nights. The remedy was cessation of mental exertion in the evening and the formation of a habit of retiring at tho same lime each night. No letter writ ing, no reading of excitable, books, jvas allowed, and the mind was placed in as passive a state as possible. Tho Ameri can, who bad been victim of sleep lessness for year3. returned home cured Tub, man who must work at night, however, will still have to go on gclting his sleep as best be can. : The Planets tu September. . Mercury is morning star after the 2d, for the Jast time this year. On the 2d he passed between the earth and on the 15th rises nearly an hour aod a half before the sun. . On the 27th he is in conjunction with Jupiter, and on the 30th he is at his greatest distance north. Saturn is morning star, and win3 the second place for being at present the most beautiful of all the visible stars, as Jupiter is hidden in the jsunVrays. and Venus hugs the sun too closely to be seen long after his disappearance. This wonder of the system takes no act ive part in the events of tbe month. Venus is evening star, and reigns su premo in ili3 western sky, being the only visible planet after the sun goes down. She sets, during the month, about an hour after the sun, but is now so bright that she is visible almost as soon as the sun disappears, her increase in size and brightness being plainly per ceptible. y. Uranus is evening star until the 2Gth, and then morning star. On the 26tb, at 2 o'clock in the morning, Uranus is in conjunction with the sun. passing beyond him and reappearing on his western side. - Neptune is morning star, and pur sues his far-away course without ens countering any other planet or large star, seeming just now :o wander in a region that i3 all his. He is approach ing his nearest point to the earth, and if he could change places with Mars would create a great excitement among the terrestrial star-gazers. Mars is morning star. He is now at the commencement of his period of visi bility, and hiVcourse may be easily traced by those who are sufficiently interested to rise for the purpose in the small hours of the morning. On tbe 1st he was seen in , the constellation Gem ini; on the 12th he is in line with Cas tor and Pollux ; on the 24th he may be foundjn Praesepe, a cluster of email slars in Cancer. Jupiter is evening star until the 8th, aud then changes his role to that of morning star. On tbe 8ih, at 5 o'clock in the afternoon., this brilliant planet is in conjunction with the sun,, disappear ing beyond him. and being for a time totally lost to terrestrial view. Ho will, however, soon take his place among tbe visible morning stars, and afford new material for telescopic research. The September moon fulls on tbe 24th. On the 3d, the day of the last quarter, tho moon is in conjunction with Saturn, and on tbe 5th with Mars. On tho.7th she is in close conjunction with Mercury, and on the 8th, when about an hour old, the new moon is in conjuntion with the sun. On the 9th the moon is in very close conjunction with Uranus, on the 11th with Venus, and on the 27th with Neptune. On the 24th the moon is partially eclipsed, which is visible in this latitude. It commences at 1:15 a. m. and ends at 4:22 a. .m. About four-fifths of her diameter is in the earth's shadow. September is richly freighted with active and stirring events among the members of the solar family, iu which the sun himselt deigns to participate. Two great planets, Jupiter and Uran us, disappear from view as they reach conjunction with the sun. Mercury flits between the earth and the sun, and then oscillates to his extreme west ern limit or elongation, when early risers may behold him for a short time before his fitful light is quenched in the sunbeams. The sun reaches the au tumnal equinox and shines benignly oyer the world, while equal day and night rejgn from pole to pole. A favor ed few will behold a total eclipse of his radiant face, and gazo with admiring eyes upon tbe peerless spectacle as the silvery corona springs into view and rosy flames dart forth from tho border of the eclipsed sun, while the stars re appear in the darkened sky, and the face of nature is shrouded in funereal gloom. The moon is not behind the superior members of the family. She treats us to a partial eclipse and the occultation of a bright star. More than this, our fair satellite crowns the first autumnal month with the harvest moon. For several successive evenings there is but little difference in the time of her rising. so that the lesser orb appears in the eastern sky soon after the larger orb disappears in the western, thus seeming to prolong the day, flooding the earth with silvery light and making it beauti ful as a dream of the land where there is no night. There may be other planets combining higher elements of natural beauty than this little world, when the sunset cloud3 linger in the west, and the harvest moon, rising majestically in the east, looks eerenely down upon a lair and, ripe for the harvest. If such fairy abodes exist in tbe great universe . of space, we have no desire to visit them, unle33 we can be equipped for the voy age with higher powers of appreciation than those with which we are now endowed The Two Orphans. No better evidence of the real merit of tho performances given by the Stan dard Dramatic Company can be found then in the fact that tho Opera House is crowded every night to attend them. Last night was no exception to the rule. Tho Two Orphans was well rendered and in better style, we think, than will oien be found the case at much higher priced shows. Fanchon will be pre sented to-night and, no doubt, to another crowded bouse. A Slight Fire. There was a 3light fire this morning. at 10:30 o'clock, at the distillery of Messrs Morton & Hall, near tbe Caro lina Central depot. It caught on the roof but fortunately was discovered in time and suppressed by the workmen on the yard. A small hole was burned and the damage was light. An alarm was sentto the City Hall and given out from there to the steamers but it did not become general. The fire is thought to have caught either from a spark from the chimney of the glue house or from a passing engine. Personal We were pleased to receive a call this morning from Mr W. R. Bryan, of Duplin county, who is in the city on a short business trip. Maj. H. H. Foster, of the Daily Re view, left tho city thi3 morning for a short space of rest and recreation. He will visit friends near Goldsboro. Mr. E. G. Styron, who returned here last night from a short visit to Fayette ville. says that the old town is on a big boom now. The branch house at that place of Messrs Brown & Roddick, of this city, is, he says, the finest in itsjlin in Fayetteville. We heard, with much regret, several days since, of the fact that Capt. Henry Savage had been stricken with partial paralysis, but purposely did not men tion it. We arc glad to learn now that there has been some improvement in his condition. - Forty Mile in Four Days. There is much and continued com plaint as to the mail service between Rocky Point and Point Caswell. It is a daily mail on the schedule but iu no other way. so far as intercourse with this city is concerned. Point Caswell is only about 20 miles from Wilmington and yet it takes a merchant at the form er place four days to dispatch a letter to this city and receive an answer. And this, too, when Point Caswell is only 17 miles from Rocky Point. Mail matter which leaves here to-morrow morning for either Long Creek or Point Caswell does not reach its desti nation until Saturday because it must lie at Rocky Point twenty-four hours. The mail carrier leaves Rocky Point an hour or. so before the train from Wilmington arrives there and therein is the deiay. The merchants of Wilmington and the people all along the line of the route protest against it, but without avail. The present system is unnecessary, and senseless, and unjust. The road from Rocky Point to Point Caswell, via Long Creek, is one of the best in this section of tbe country, and as there are nearly nine hours between the two trains with which the mail driver ought to connect, it will be seen that there is ample time in which to perform the service. Ibe attention of the Second Assist-; ant P. M. General is called to these facts, and we sincerely trust that some relief will be afforded at an early day. Indications. For the South Atlantic States, gen erally fair weather, except on the im mediate coast, occasional local rains, Northeasterly winds, becoming varia ble, and a slight Tise in temperature. There will be two eclipses this month, a total eclipse of the sun, on the 8tb, in visible in America, and a partial eclipse ol the moon, on the 24tb, visible here. My love, what magic spell Is thrown Upon your face? Its charm I own. Whence came thy pure and pearly teeth? Thy rosy lips? 'Ahy perfumed breath?" She said. In accests sweet aril clear, Tis only SOZODOMT, my dear." The Atmosphere of Love Is a pure, sweet breath. This desider atum is one of the results of using SO ZODONT. which not only invigorates and preserves the teeth, but renders the mouth as fragrant as a rose.
